Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your home by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, while Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. All restoration work is fully documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, check here and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll improve operation, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We evaluate hearth integrity, flue capabilities, and safety distances, then suggest optimized inserts sized for your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units deliver airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and dependable ventilation control.
We install new worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, incorporate insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Solving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
